Boy, I do get that!!  People often act quite differently when they have 
multiple conections to a person, environment, etc.

Unfortunately, I think most of us know what that is like.  Whether we admit it 
or not.  And as to fear, while unpleasant, I like to think of it as something 
to get close to when its there.  Its one of natures best teachers.  The 
challenge is not in not being afraid;  the challenge is in overcomming the 
fear, especially when something lucious might be on the other side  :)
